INSTRUCTIONS
OPTIONS
1. POTATOES: about 4 medium. Wash potatoes and cut into cubes (about 4 cups
cubed). Leave the skin on, if you like. In a covered saucepan, cook
potatoes in enough boiling water to cover for 20 to 25 minutes or till just
tender. Drain well.
2. In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, celery, green pepper, onions,
mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper.
3. Add potatoes and egg. Toss lightly to mix. Cover and chill for 6 to 24
hours. If you'd like a creamier salad, stir in the skim milk before
serving.
4. Serve garnished wit h celery leaves and sprinkled with paprika, if you
like. Serve as side-dish
Note: If you're watching the cholesterol in your diet, you can leave out
the egg or use egg whites. For variety, try substituting a different sweet
pepper--yellow, brown, purple, red or orange--for the green one.

Notes: http://midwestliving.com/salads/ "Leaving the skin on the potatoes
adds fiber to this classic side dish. Low-fat mayonnaise or salad dressing
helps cut the fat to 1 gram per serving, compared with about 25 grams in a
typical creamy potato salad. The mustard spices up the flavor."
